Why has this cheese spaghetti recipe gone viral?!

Ok, we totally get that uncontrollable craving for a big bowl of hearty, creamy pasta every now and again, especially when the weather's been as cold as it has been. But we're not too sure why this blogger's easy pasta creation has caused such a stampede on social media.

The original recipe was posted on food blog, Julia's Album, and yes, whilst it does look tasty and worth a forkful or two, it certainly doesn't shake up the foodie senses on our proverbial plate – does it yours?

But when Delish posted their version of the recipe on their Facebook page, fans went nuts for the stuff, with endless comments saying how great it looked. Is it just us or is this simply a plain bowl of cream and cheese pasta?!

We are however all over simple dinner creations, particularly when it comes to pasta. And looking at this foolproof spaghetti recipe, it does look fairly simple and pretty quick to make.

All you need is garlic, cream, a selection of your favourite cheese (Italian is the best) and vegetable stock, then pour generously over pasta and you're onto a cheesy winner.

Here's our version of the recipe if you want to make it yourself, or if you're feeling a little more adventurous, try some more of our delicious pimped up pasta recipes instead.
